Important notice:We've learnt that some who
were members last year think that if they've not renewed by June 16 then
they have to pay a joining fee again. This is not correct. So long as
you rejoin this season at any time you do not need to pay the joining
fee. However, should you not renew until next season you previous
membership will have been deemed to have lapsed. You will retain your
member ID, it stays with you for life, but if you let your membership
lapse for one or more complete seasons a joining fee will be required
when you come back. If you were a member last season and have not yet
renewed you can download a form, get a form from one of our local tackle
shops or, best of all, renew on-line via Member Services. Once you have completed your details you will need
to print out and post back the form with payment and pictures if
applicable.

We have not yet implemented
on-line payments therefore the process for renewal is the same as
previous years in that you tick the membership(s) you require, plus any
extras, add up the costs and send back the completed form plus cheque
payment and two passport photos (if we've not already got your picture
from last season). Please remember to include an A5 SAE.

New memberships
follow a similar process. Simply click this link to
register yourself as a new member on Member Services and complete
the form carefully. Select the membership and extras you require, print
out the completed form (remember to select Print to Fit so that
all the columns are included) and post back with an A5 SAE to the
address provided. Please either upload your passport style photo or
include two copies with your form as we print your picture directly onto
your membership card. Please DO NOT CREATE a new account if you
are an existing VAC MEMBER.

Additionally, new member
forms will be available from local tackle shops.

HAVE
WE GOT YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS?

Remember, that unless your email
address is registered on Club DB, our membership database, we can't keep you up
to date via e-news nor can we accept your application to join the VAC Forum. To
check and update your details see the Subscriptions page

Picture Perfect?

Club DB, our
excellent member database, is now serving us well with members able to
log in and update their details at any time.

However, a large number of
members have not yet sent in or uploaded a passport style picture which
we will need to print up your next membership card. We believe we have
now resolved some the technical difficulties but for those who cannot
upload a suitable picture please find time to either email your photo
(quoting ID number) or pop a picture in the post to the Registrar. More
details on the Subscriptions page.

his first visit.

this 14.12 specimen.
